Research Abstract |
This study contributes to the regional science in two points. The first part is the mathematical study on spatial economics, clarifying the mechanism of industrial agglomeration by a general-equilibrium framework. Particularly, we study the economy in a space of multiple industries and multiple regions, develop the international trade theory, and apply the results to resolve some problems in environment economics and development economics. The results are summarized in 9 academic papers, published (or accepted) in well-known international journals. The second part is the mathematical study on conflict resolution. We examine new arbitration procedures AFOA and DOA proposed by the applicant by use of experiments and show that AFOA works better than other existing procedures. We also extend the graph model for conflict resolution by use of the concept of strategy in dynamic game theory. The results are summarized in 7 academic papers, 6 of them are published in well-known international journals, and one of them is published in a Japanese journal for Japanese lawyers.
